Well actually, what you do get is a pretty good album - even if it didn't totally set my pulse racing, or make me put this record on my list of Essential Classic Albums. I don't necessarily feel that all the songs mesh together, but that is hardly a surprise - and overall it is a rather good and enjoyable album that brings out memories of the late 80s, when I was still trying to find my own place in life. recorded or released approximately in between both Volume 1 and 3 (generally in 1989).

During an interview, George Harrison was asked if he felt pressure when writing songs for the second Traveling Wilburys album. He replied with a quote from Tom Petty, who said, "There was so much pressure we decided to avoid Vol. 2 and just go straight to Vol. 3 where there was no pressure. I thought of that (it would drive the collectors crazy) because it's obvious: Vol. 1, Vol. 2. It's too obvious, we had to make it Vol. 3 just for the change." When promoting the Wilburys in October 1988, Harrison joked that the inspiration for the band's formation and their name came originally from Prince Charles, who was impressed with Harrison and Lynne's performance at the Prince's Trust Concert in June 1987.

Philip Qvist: I was a huge fan of ELO, liked Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and of course you have the legends that is the Beatles - even if I preferred George Harrison as a 60s and 70s songwriter, rather than as an 80s one. That said, I preferred Bob Dylan as a songwriter rather than as a singer, while I never really got into Roy Orbison. So when you get these five legends together, what do you get? An ego fueled mess, a classic or a bit of a mixed bag?
